Dallas has joined the ramen craze by storm. In the past weeks we have noticed more shops either opening or announcing that they will open. This is a good thing. One of our favorite ramen restaurants in Deep Ellum is Tanoshii Ramen + Bar. You may recall this as our first encounter, and was elated with the visit. One of our favorite items was the appetizer-sized banh xeo. Banh Xeo is a sizzling crepe made from rice batter and stuffed with pork, shrimp and veggies. The name banh xeo means ‘sizzling cake’ from the sound it makes as it is being grilled. I could eat a barrel of these at one sitting.

Look for a variety of ramen choices, including a dry ramen.

Banh Xeo

Tanoshii will open for luncheon service December 10, 213 from 11am to 2:30pm. Slurp ‘em if you got ‘em.
